    Crust was good.
    S H.

    Pretty good slice! Employees were very nice. Pizza was pretty good , no grease, crust was good. Great place to stop and grab some food .

    Dan P.

    Small, local pizza place. By the slice $5. Decent but not outstanding in any way, a little greasy. Service: order at the counter Staff: friendly Overall cleanliness: average

    Slice of Pepperoni and Veggie
    Rachel W.

    Brah. This is how my food came out. No cheese on either of the slices and one looks like it already had a bite taken out of it

    Pepperoni jalapeño ranch by the slice

    Tony's Pizza is located in the Gaslamp off E Street and 4th serving up Pizza all through the day and night. I dropped by Tony's after a night of going out with friends for drinks and had the munchies and was craving something that would fulfill my empty stomach. I walked in and there were a couple of customers coming through ordering as well. I went ahead and ordered the pepperoni jalapeño ranch Pizza by the slice. All the pizzas are on display and when you order they throw the slice into the hot oven again to reheat it but in my case they did not. He told me that the Pizza just came out of the oven and is already hot. In my head and eyes it wasnt hot he just wanted to get people in and out as fast as he could to prevent a crowd build up from all the crowds on a weekend night. As for the Pizza it was just okay and nothing spectacular. The Gaslamp has tons of pizza by the slice shops and I have never expierenced something like this before where service was not a priority. Maybe during the day and they don't have a rush this place would be better.

    Well, I didn't find Tony Montana but I did locate a solid late night cravings spot in downtown San Diego. Selling pizza by the slice and more, the small storefront offered friendly & quick service. Around $5-6+ per slice

    Hawaiian Small
    Charlene B.

    Midnight and hungry after a concert. The perfect solution. Open, with a line out the door at midnight, a good sign. We were the only sober people in there other than the workers who were polite and quick with our order. They had a few different kinds 5-6 to choose from. I got Hawaiian and hubby pepperoni. They were both a decent size slice, and the crust,sauce and toppings were good. A great midnight snack!

    E Street Special and Brewski
    Elvira O.

    I love this New York City style pizza. The crust is fresh and crispy. The cheese is salty and creamy. I got the E Street special which has fresh tomato, mushrooms, and basil. You can't go wrong with that! My boyfriend got a slice of the Brewski which has pepperoni and sausage. Also a winner. He grew up in New York and confirmed that this is indeed New York City style pizza as it was easy to fold in half without the crust breaking...something I still don't understand but what I do understand is that these were delicious pies! I believe it was the owner that greeted us. Great guy! Everyone here was so nice!

    Check-In Offer
    Rachel Macie H.

    Wondering around late night going from place to place grabbing a drink will definitely leave you wanting something to fill the gap between and what's better than a pie to share with some of your friends to get you all on the same level! So after a few hours wondering about we stumbled on to Tony's seeing that all of us were into pizza on this given night and that we had our friend Tony with us coming here just seemed to be right and it very much so was! Once inside we just went with a pepperoni pizza as it easy to share and something everyone could enjoy so that's what we got it was basically NYC style with plenty of toppings cheese and a yummy crust that all of us enjoyed tell the last slice! This is a small little spot with a few tables inside as well as daily specials for your pie needs and if this were not enough they have a Check-In offer too so if you stop by inside definitely take advantage of that! Overall late night pizza how could you go wrong the pepperoni pie was yummy the lady working was nice and we all enjoyed our slice!

    Buffalo pizza slice
    John M.

    In the downtown area, walking around after a bad experience somewhere else this spot was near by, the man at the counter was friendly and fast Got myself a Buffalo pizza slice, it hit the spot. It was good! Tasted warm hot and fresh. It was also very affordable 3 stars because he didn't have any pepperoni slices available but overall fast friendly and delicious

    90 MIN WAIT ON MON EVENING... A) POOR MANAGEMENT B) POOR STAFFING C) BOTH A & B  - YOU CHOOSE!!!

    LATE & SLOW- mon eve 4/12/21 placed an order through the uber eats app 9:08pm. note- tony's 11 min away & use their own drivers. i selected because listed delivery time 25 minutes or less. long story short & 3 unapologetic (and borderline rude) phone calls later, order arrived at 10:45pm- over 90 minutes later. to ice the cake...i ordered a philly cheese steak from the menu- it had no cheese!!! ........................................................ oh and fckk uber-eats too for giving **zero fckks** about with who they do business!!! #tonyssucks #readsimilarreviewsbelow #doordashnextorder #deleteubereats

    Margherita Pizza
    Will F.

    All time worst pizza ever. Period. Ordered at 8:02 PM just got here 9:34. Completely burnt. We're not talking a little crispy we're talking when you touch it the pizza brakes apart like ash in a fire pit. COMPLETELY INEDIBLE. Call back to get my money back and the best they could do was redeliver it with the next batch. I asked how long and another hour+..... I ordered it at 8 so I might get a pizza at 11pm? I'm sticking with Gaslamp Pizza now on they never did me wrong like this.

    Boneless bbq wings - way too much sauce and half were not fully cooked. Do not recommend
    Britney H.

    After looking at the most recent positive reviews, my friend and I decided to try it out on a Sunday evening around 8pm. I ordered through door dash & picked it up. It wasn't ready when we arrived which was fine. We stood outside and waited and empathized with the one employee working. We ordered: Mozzarella sticks - the marinara sauce was missing 10 piece teriyaki - they were *literally* drowning in sauce (see photo) 5 piece boneless bbq - again, drowning in sauce and half were undercooked There were also no utensils or napkins. I guess thats what we get for not checking the bag before you leave. This is likely not a restaurant I'd visit again.

    Standard kind of place. Slices are on the small size, especially for $3.50/slice. Decent selection of pizzas. Flavor was average..... texture below average....good in a pinch.

    This place is one of the top 5 best sandwich shops in San Diego hands down. They also serve salads,…read moresoups, and some awesome sides. I heard they're going to start serving beer and wine soon as well! *Best 1st-timer options*: The Keeper (if you like it spicy) or the L.G.B.T. My favorite hot sandwiches are the Cali Cubano, B3, and The Keeper, while my favorite cold sandwiches are the Avocado Highway, L.G.B.T. (lettuce, gouda, bacon, tomato), and Caprese. My favorite salads are the Grapevine and Duck Cranberry. For sides I recommend the potato salad and tomato basil bisque. The aioli they use is to die for -- can't hurt to get a side of it with any sandwich! The restaurant is situated on the corner of Park Blvd. and Polk Ave. (more generally, it's on the strip of Park Blvd. between University Ave. and El Cajon Blvd.). There is usually a good amount of parking on Park Blvd. and Polk Ave., which is nice. The space has a simple-yet-tasteful modern design and interior, is always clean, with friendly and helpful staff. Great for lunch hour or a weekend date. Update: Came back today with my friend and we ordered the B3 and the Turkey & Cheddar Mousse sandwiches, plus sides of potato salad and cucumber salad, and a double chocolate cookie with pistachio and sea salt. Everything was really good, but the Turkey & Cheddar Mousse sandwich was the star of the show. The cookie was great too. We both agreed the potato salad could use some salt, but besides that it was a solid meal all around.

    Big Front Door has quickly become a new favorite for sandwiches, and visiting two days in a row…read moremade that very clear. On the first visit, Zack provided exceptional care and attention while helping navigate food allergies. Zack took the time to carefully check ingredients, double-check preparations, and personally come back out to verify everything to ensure safety. That level of care made the experience feel genuinely welcoming and stress-free. The chicken sandwich was fresh, satisfying, and thoughtfully balanced. Juicy chicken, ripe tomatoes, creamy avocado, and a bright splash of oil and vinegar came together beautifully on Big Front Door's roll, which had a great texture and held everything together well. The flavors were clean and vibrant. A little extra salt would have pushed it over the top for a salt-lover, but that came down to personal preference rather than any shortcoming. A dining companion ordered the avocado sandwich and could not stop raving about it, praising both the flavor and the freshness. The outdoor seating area deserves special mention. The shaded space was perfect as I do have sun allergies, especially for anyone who prefers relief from direct sun. The care taken in food preparation added an extra layer of comfort and trust. The second visit somehow raised the bar even higher. Micah went above and beyond to accommodate physical ability needs with patience, attentiveness, and genuine kindness. That effort did not go unnoticed and made the experience feel deeply respectful and inclusive. The roasted chicken sandwich ordered on the second visit was phenomenal. The roasted chicken was tender, savory, and full of depth, elevating the sandwich even further. Adding a bit of extra salt brought all the ingredients into perfect harmony, making every bite more satisfying than the last. This sandwich has officially earned a spot as a new favorite sandwich. Big Front Door was amazing not just for delicious, thoughtfully prepared food, but for the people who work there. Zack and Micah created an environment where care, kindness, and respect were clearly prioritized. No moment felt rushed, dismissive, or uncomfortable. At no point did anyone make the experience feel like a burden or inconvenience. A sincere thank-you also goes to the team members who prepared the food. Even without knowing names, the care taken to keep guests safer while serving delicious nourishment was evident and deeply appreciated. Big Front Door comes highly recommended for the flavorful sandwiches, the shaded outdoor space, the welcoming atmosphere, outstanding customer service, and the genuine kindness shown at every action.

    Coming back to send my love to my favorite sub place…read more I've sadly moved to a different part of town so Fatboy's is no longer a few blocks away. I still try to stop by every few months as this place holds a special place in my heart. A no frills spot. Solid and consistent. To the point but friendly customer service. Fantastic drink, chip and snack selection. Sandwiches are always bomb asf. The hot momma and BLT loaded up is my favorite. My husband still loves their Ruben (it is his favorite place to get it.) You get a small potato or macaroni salad on the side with a pickle (perfect crunch.) I personally think it's a great little add on. Their chili is also simple but delicious. I personally think their chili pairs perfectly with any of their sandwiches. It's not a heavy thick chili. Which is why I think it pairs so well. I won't lie it's a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. It's loaded up and good quality. I never feel gross or overly bloated after eating here. I will be coming back to Fatboy's until I move out of San Diego or die. lol. One of my favorite gems in SD. Always will be worth the drive or walk. Thank you for always delivering even years later.

    Street parking only, some metered some free w/2 hour limit. Walk in and order at the deli counter…read more Pay at the register and pick up next to the register. They have signs that say 'order' and 'pick up'. Each sandwich comes with a pickle and either Mac salad or potato salad. This is a grab and go place, small exterior seating. Was quoted 15 mins but it was done in about 5. Lots of interesting chip and drink flavors sold here. Tried: North Park Club on sourdough $15.99 - the sourdough was amazing. Get it toasted! Brought the sandwich home and it was still good and not soggy. Pickle spear was good. Can't rate the potato salad cus I'm not really a fan but it was a little crunchy. This is a must try. Avoid other deli's in north park area. This one was less expensive and tasted better! I'll be back.

I mean just look at the pictures and tell me your mouth isn't drooling for some of that. One bite and it was so fresh, so tasty, so juicy, so amazing. Absolutely stunning and delicious. If you love a good cheese cheesy cheesesteak then I highly recommend you get the Cheez Wiz because that one was SO gooey and cheesy just the perfect amount. Now I always know that fries are never the best to go but this place wrapped their fries up like a sandwich which was the first I've ever seen and did it work. They didn't come out soggy at all. Such a nice touch that every restaurant needs to be apart of. The cheese dipping sauce was KILLER. Everything about this just makes you want to rub your belly, gorge, and eat while enjoying some World Cup matches which is exactly what happened. Absolutely amazed by Gaglione and shoutout to whoever gave us an extra fry too, I salute to you! Best, TBG (The Big Gorger)

The staff was welcoming and friendly from the moment we walked in, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. The Meatball Sandwich is an absolute must-try packed with flavor and perfectly made. The Signature Sandwich was another standout because it's something different from your typical Italian sandwich. It had its own unique flavor that really sets it apart. I didn't get a chance to try the pizza this visit, but if the sandwiches are any indication, I already know I'll be back for it soon. The only small downside is that the parking lot is a little tight, especially during busy hours, but it's well worth the minor inconvenience. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations. Great food, friendly service, fair prices, and a unique setup that makes you want to keep coming back. This has definitely earned a spot on my regular rotation. Highly recommend!
